Vector Transmission:
Virus is transmitted by arthropods, by insects
of the order Hemiptera, family Aphididae; Aphis gossypii, Myzus persicae.
Virus is transmitted in a non-persistent manner.
Experimentally infected insusceptible Hosts: Families containing insusceptible hosts: Chenopodiaceae, Solanaceae. Species inoculated with virus that do not show signs of susceptibility: Chenopodium amaranticolor, Chenopodium murale, Chenopodium quinoa, Datura stramonium, Nicotiana clevelandii, Nicotiana glutinosa.
Benincasa hispida, Cucumis sativus, Cucurbita maxima x C. moschata, C. moschata, Luffa cylindrica and Momordica charantia systemic chlorotic spotting.
Citrullus lanatus, Cucumis melo, Lagenaria leucantha and Trichosanthes anguina systemic vein clearing, vein necrosis, mottling and/or distortion.
Trichosanthes rostrata systemic mottling. Diagnostic host: insusceptible host species Chenopodium amaranticolor, C. murale, C. quinoa, Datura stramonium, Nicotiana clevelandii, N. glutinosa.
Histopathology: Virions are found in the cytoplasm.
Cytopathology: Inclusion bodies in the host cell are found in the cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic inclusions are pinwheels.

ICTVdB - The Universal Virus Database, developed for the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) by Dr Cornelia Büchen-Osmond, is written in DELTA. The virus descriptions in ICTVdB are coded by ICTV members and experts, or by the ICTVdB Management using data provided by the experts, the literature or the latest ICTV Report. The character list is the underlying code. All virus descriptions are based on the character list and natural language translations from the encoded descriptions are automatically generated and formatted for display on the Web.
Developer of the DELTA software: M. J. Dallwitz, T. Paine and E. Zurcher
